Description
Sonoff SNZB-04PR1 is the ideal solution for securing your home and creating smart automations based on the state of doors, windows, gates or drawers. The new version in the Pro (PR1) series brings a substantial improvement in battery life and mechanical reliability, being designed to withstand intensive daily use without frequent battery changes.
Thanks to Zigbee 3.0 technology, the sensor instantly transmits state changes to the local hub, triggering automations without depending on the speed of the internet connection. The compact size and flame-retardant plastic casing allow discreet, clean installation on any type of frame (PVC, wood, aluminium or metal).
Note: This product uses the Zigbee protocol and requires a compatible Zigbee hub/bridge (e.g. Sonoff ZBBridge-P / Sonoff ZBBridge-U / Sonoff ZBDongle-E / Sonoff Dongle-M) to be connected to the network and controlled from the app. It does not work on its own over WiFi.
Key Features & Technical Advantages
-
Extended CR2477 Battery Life: The use of a high-capacity battery (CR2477) combined with the low consumption of the Zigbee 3.0 chip provides long battery life, removing the worry of constant maintenance.
-
Fast Open / Closed Detection: The internal magnetic sensor sends instant notifications to your phone the second the door or window is opened or closed.
-
Detailed Event History: Automatically logs every opening and closing with the exact time and date in the eWeLink app, giving you a clear record of access to your home.
-
Low Battery Notification: You get an automatic alert in the app when the battery level drops below the safety threshold, so you can replace it in good time.
-
Simple Tool-Free Mounting: Fixes quickly with the included 3M double-sided adhesive tape, and can be placed on main doors, windows, garage doors, safes or medicine/document cabinets.
-
Universal Zigbee 3.0 Compatibility: Integrates directly with Sonoff hubs (NSPanel Pro, ZB Bridge-P/U, iHost), as well as with open-source and third-party platforms: Home Assistant (via ZHA or Zigbee2MQTT), SmartThings, Hubitat and Amazon Alexa.
Ways to Use It and Scenarios
-
Anti-Burglary Alarm System: Set up a critical notification to your phone and trigger the siren/hub (e.g. Sonoff NSPanel Pro) if a window or the front door opens while you are away from home.
-
Saving Energy on Climate Control: Schedule the thermostat or the air conditioning to switch off automatically when the sensor detects that the window in the room has been left open for more than 2 minutes.
-
Automatic Lighting When Entering the Home: Set the hallway light to switch on instantly (via a Sonoff smart relay) as soon as the front door opens in the evening.
